Dental Hygienists Are Paid about $36 an Hour: Survey Results

In our most recent survey, we asked dentists the average hourly wage of their dental hygienists; the average answer was $36 an hour, whether paid on commission, by the hour, or salaried. However, the range is wide, with some making $20 or less and others pulling in $50 or more. Dentists’ feelings on the subject are mixed; some feel hygienists are grossly overpaid, while others insist they’re worth every penny.
